{"id":920,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/920","headline":"49ers survive late Commanders rally, win 23-17","dek":"San Francisco built a 23-3 lead before Washington nearly stole it back in the fourth quarter.","body":"The 49ers improved to 6-0 on Monday night, but they had to sweat out the final play to beat the Commanders 23-17 at home. San Francisco dominated the first half, piling up 303 yards and 17 first downs on 41 plays while holding Washington to just 90 yards, two first downs and 17 plays. The 49ers led 20-3 at halftime and had stretched that to 23-3 with 18 seconds left in the third quarter, looking well in control.\n\nThen the game flipped. Jayden Daniels threw two touchdown passes in the second half as the Commanders suddenly found their rhythm, outgaining San Francisco 224 to 72 over the final two quarters and pulling within six points. Washington got the ball back with a chance to complete the comeback, but the 49ers defense stopped them on a crucial play on one of the Commanders' late possessions to seal it.\n\nThe win keeps San Francisco perfect through six games, while Washington falls to 1-4-1 with another frustrating finish. The Commanders have now lost four of their last five, and the second-half surge will offer little comfort after squandering such a lopsided early deficit.","published_at":"2026-10-20T00:05:54.422100+00:00","source_count":5,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Monday Night Football: 49ers hang on for 23-17 win over Commanders","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/monday-night-football-49ers-hang-on-for-23-17-win-over-commanders"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Monday Night Football live chat, discussion: 49ers vs. Commanders","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/monday-night-football-live-chat-000438508.html"},{"outlet":"CBS Sports","publisher":"CBS Sports","title":"Commanders vs. 49ers odds, prediction, betting preview, start time: Monday Night Football picks, best bets","url":"https://www.cbssports.com/betting/news/commanders-49ers-odds-prediction-betting-preview-start-time-monday-night-football-picks-best-bets/"},{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"Commanders vs. 49ers live updates: NFL ‘Monday Night Football’ score, predictions, odds and latest","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/live-blogs/commanders-vs-49ers-live-score-updates-nfl-mnf-result/7l5VqvNemWhe/"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"Commanders face 49ers in Monday Night Football–Where to watch for free","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/10/19/sports/where-to-watch-commanders-49ers-for-free-in-monday-night-football/"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"CBS Sports","publisher":"CBS Sports","title":"Commanders vs. 49ers prediction, odds, time: 'Monday Night Football' picks by proven model","url":"https://www.cbssports.com/betting/news/commanders-49ers-prediction-odds-time-monday-night-football-picks/"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Five pressing Commanders questions that must be answered (by you) in Week 6 vs. 49ers","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/five-pressing-commanders-questions-must-003000316.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Why 49ers-Commanders Could Be Closer Than Their Records Suggest","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/why-49ers-commanders-could-closer-051911669.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Washington Commanders vs. San Francisco 49ers: Week 6 staff picks and predictions","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/washington-commanders-vs-san-francisco-090933778.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Washington Commanders vs. San Francisco 49ers: How to watch Monday Night Football, start time, where to stream free and more","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/article/washington-commanders-vs-san-francisco-49ers-how-to-watch-monday-night-football-start-time-where-to-stream-free-and-more-102500727.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"What channel is Commanders vs. 49ers on today?
